If you read the set files of aircraft you will see the authors names there.
What version are you using , PLIB or OSG ?Did you get the Bravo from CVS ? I,ve made some changes to the P1000 system here , moving it into the Bravo folder instead of Instruments-3d , and yes , it needs a ton of work , but the present issue with it is coming up with a better text drawing routine , which I haven't managed yet ... I'm not sure what to suggest , I occasionally get the transparency problem , but more often than not , it seems to be caused by animation object grouping ... Do you have any pictures of the panel changes ?
